The problem

Your event deserves better than a WhatsApp group

Sri Lankan events are managed across five group chats, a printed guest list, a bank app, and someone's Excel sheet. Tickets go missing. Payments aren't confirmed. Nobody knows how many seats are left.

Before hosted.
✕WhatsApp groups for ticket sales, payment confirmations, and seating — all mixed together
✕Excel spreadsheet for guest list, shared over email, multiple versions floating around
✕Cash and bank transfers with no audit trail — disputes at the gate on event day
✕Paper ticket books — easy to forge, impossible to track, no real-time visibility
✕Table seating chaos — two families claiming the same table, arguments before the event starts
With hosted.
✓Physical ticket books with digital QR activation — tradition meets technology
✓Bank transfer + slip upload with Finance Lead approval queue — full audit trail
✓Live venue map — guests claim tables in real time, no double-bookings
✓WhatsApp notifications for every step — OTP, confirmation, seat assignment, reminders
✓Gate scanning with instant QR validation — entry in seconds, fraud impossible
Built for everyone

📦
Assigned ticket books
Receive your assigned book numbers digitally. Log each sale from your phone — buyer name, payment method, and slip upload all in one flow.
📲
Seller mobile app
Log a sale in under 30 seconds. The buyer gets an automatic WhatsApp. Finance Lead reviews. Everyone stays in the loop — no follow-up chasing.
🔐
Seller ≠ approver
A seller cannot approve their own sales. Finance Lead is a separate role. The system enforces this at the database level — not a rule, a guarantee.
🚪
Gate scanner role
Full-screen QR scanner for gate managers. Instant valid/invalid result. Prevents re-entry, catches duplicates, logs every scan with timestamp.

What event organisers are saying

"We used hosted. for our OBA dinner and the Finance Lead could approve payments from her phone while the treasurer was on the other side of Colombo. That alone was worth it."

R
Ruwini Dissanayake
OBA Events Convenor

"The live table map was the thing our guests loved most. People were WhatsApping each other — 'claim T-8, I'm getting T-9' — before we even sent the reminder."

K
Kavinda & Imesha
Wedding Hosts · June 2025

"Gate entry was the fastest we've ever done at 400 guests. The scanners just pointed and it went green or red. No arguments, no checking a list. Done."
